Base Ball.


NEW YORK, Sept. "A good sized
crowd witnessed a fine game of ball be-
tween the New York and Detroit clubs
to day. The giants presented their new
battery, Titcomb and Murphy, and right
well did they play. The Detroits were
unable to hit Titcomb, who pitches a very
peculiar ball. The game was called at the
end of the seventh inning on account of
darkness.

Weird Picture of a Tomb.
MON, tbe Do7,er tDeIl Tnder


Mr.. ]. H. Vane has in his possession
photograph of the monument of the late
Hon. John M. Clayton, in the Presbyterian
churchyard in this town, that is attracting
considerable attention and has caused not
little comment Mr.. Vane is photogra-
pher, and in March last photographed the
monument. Hewas accompanied by boy.
When he looked at the plate he saw things
never dreamed of in connection with the
monument and showed them to the boy.
The later no sooner looked at the plate than
his hair got on the perpendicular and his feet
had an uncomfortable desire for home. The
monument is a very large, fine, white mar

a heavy marble canopy supported by hand

several feet between the tomb proper and

the strangely supernatural feature of the
photograph. Between the tomb and the
canopy above can be distinctly seen the head
and shoulders of a white whisxered man.
Peering around the right-hand corner of the
tomb, as if watching him, can be seen the
head of "A woman with gaze fixed intently

Floating in the air above the monument can
be seen the shadowy countenance of a large,
smooth-faced, white-haired man. with eyes

to be that the plate was in some way defec
tive, or had the impressions impaired to it
in some mysterious manner before the
photograph was taken.

The Hundred Leading Newspapers.
From the NetV York sun.

We have received from postal card cor
respondent this somewhat unexpected and
embarrassing request:
What are the hundred leading daily news
papers of the United States? Please name them
according to your honest opinion"
Whether our correspondents question is
suggested by the various century lists which
it is just now the fashion for the idly curl
Gus to frame-the hundred best novels, the
hundred greatest authors, the hundred most
eminent men of the time, and so forth-or
whether he has in view the more practical
purpose of stocking a reading room with a
fair representation of the contemporary
literature of American journalism, we have
no means of knowing. 1t is not always easy
to say what constitutes leading newspaper.
Weight and influence of editorial opinion
news enterprise, literary qualities, circula-
ton, notoriety, geographical situation, and
even accident all have something to do with
the matter. 1t is not difficult to name dozens
of journals that certainly belong among the
leaders; but when it comes to filling out the
list to the exact number specified, to decid-
ing between the rival claims of newspapers
of nearly equal Importance, to beckoning
this newspaper into the front seats and wav-
ing that one to place behind the ribbon,
the task becomes both arduous and delicate.
1t is very much like attempting to make a
III.
The choice must in some cases be arbitrary,
and must depend largely upon the personal
inclinations and point of view of the person
or persons intrusted with the responsibility
of selection.
Nevertheless, the question is rather inter
esting, and we are tempted to furnish our
correspondent with a list of the one hun
dred newspapers, from among the / 200 or
1900 published daily in the United States,
which in our opinion should be classed for
one reason or another as leaders in the Jour-
nalistic community. They are all printed
in the English language. They are not all
to our liking. Several of them would be
comparatively insignificant were it not for
considerations of locality The matter of
political opinion, of course, does not infu-
ence the composition of the list, except so
far as the weight and character of a news
papers opinions seem to us to entitle it to a
Here is the experimental list:

AMERICAN PIANOS.
1.-The United States Leads the World
in The Art Of Manufac-
turing Pianos"

The piano, after more than a century and
half after its invention, has become the
leading instrument of music throughout
Christendom. There are at least fifty
thousand men employed in their manufac-
ture, and as many as a hundred thousand
are made every year. An average piano
requires one hundred and twenty days of
labor to complete it-a slow and tiresome
process for the work of one mans hands,
but in Germany they are still so made.
Although the United States now turns out
many thousand pianos a year, fifty-tive
years ago scarcely fifty were made, annually.
Almost every household now regards a
piano as essential to happiness; for we have
long since passed the age of simplicity of
our forefathers, and the age of luxury has
fairly set inland we rejoice that it is so.
What wide field is open for the manu-
facturer, and what Inducements to carry
improvements of the piano to the highest
state of perfection. The variableness of our
climate renders it of the first Importance
that our pianos should be made in the most
thorough and substantial manner, and we
certainly can claim that our American
pianos arc the best in the iCorld. -MuSicaL
World.
The question of the superiority of Ameri-
can pianos over those of foreign make is
mdisputably settled and needs no discussion,
while in prices the odds are likewise largely
in our favor.
For demonstration call and examine til Q
line of American Uprights we offer at $40,
$225 and $3.50.
They Cannot be Matched at the
Price in this or any
other World.

That theory has been so universally ac-
cepted that even persons possessed of

of cultivating it. Yet speaking, a part of
the necessary business of life, is left to
regulate itself. We squeak or pipe, as
the case may be, all the time deploring

into 10000 gallon brick reservoir
near the engine house. From this
place the water is lifted by a steam
pump to the tanks over the the main
building, which contain about 12,OOO
gallons. From the tanks the water is
conducted as needed into two reser-
voirs over the water closets, which
have a capacity of 10000 gallons each.
From these tanks the water is supplied
to various parts of the house. Fire
plugs are arranged in various parts of
the building and 1,O75 feet of two-inch
hose is distributed so that tsean be
effectively used in case of fire.
The new building will accommodate
when completed three hundred pa
tients. Commissioners Shannon and
Tullis have devoted much time to the
work falling on them in the construc-
ton of the new hospital, and deserve
much credit for what they have done
Praise is also due the thorough-going
supervising architect, ]. G. Proctor,
also DIR. Waughop, the able superin-
tendent of the hospital, whose sug-
gestions have been of great service.
The patients in the hospital now
number 223 and are increasing so
fast that additions will soon have to
built to the asylum. Already the
male inmates are too many for the
accommodations provided in the new
structure, and some of them will have
to remain in the old buildings. The
number of bricks used in construct
ing the hospital was about two and a
half million. The new building will
